Actually, this isn't the only story with no Autobots. Several of the 5-page black and white stories (including a couple of Earthforce ones) have no Autobots.

There's some even before then too IIRC - Dry Run and Altered Image have none and I think they're only in a brief flashback in Buster Witwicky and the Carwash of Doom.

@Snowcat: It sounds like you enjoy the story for the same reasons I don't, which is cool. I'd just prefer either a serious story or one that fully embraced its silliness rather than one that falls between stools.

I enjoyed this issue, which was #13 here. I found Joey Slick to be a likeable enough character, surprisingly. Like the people in his neighbourhood, I didn’t mind him when he was a nobody, a low-level mafia-connected errand boy who didn’t have to hurt people. And while I’m not wild about him robbing people, the fact that he was careful to not kill or hurt them shows some decency, deep down.

I forgot to mention the Panini stickers. They were awesome. I didn’t even have the accompanying album until a few years ago; I just loved that there were high-quality screenshots of the cartoon! I also had some Panini stickers for GI Joe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and X-Men (1992). I still treasure them.

Is this story kind of inspired by the Beyonder hanging out with mobsters in Secret Wars II? (the issue which had Circuit Breaker in it, no less)
